E. â€" Because it is composed of both Indian and Ceylon teas. The tea bush is indigenous to Assam in Northern India, and botanists are of the opinion that it is the parent species of all the cultivated varieties in India, Ceylon, China and elsewhere. In a wild state, it grows to a height of fifteen to twenty feet, but the cultivated shrub is only thage to four feet high. Assam being the natural home of the tea bush, it is not surprising that this and other districts in Northern India produce the richest, most pungent teas grown in the worldâ€"teas thit command higher prices than even the finest Ceylons; but ‘Ceylon teas are very flavory and fragrant, and seem to be specially made to blend with the richer, more syrupy tea of India.

Patty was also dressed to perfection, and looked rcally very handsome, and certainly did her best to fascinate her guest, but Sir Ralph was not responsive. He sat and looked at the three girls, and the one that made no effort to attract his admiration attracted him most,. Laura did not say very much, . for Patty seemed determined to let no one speak but herself. She wished to show Sir Ralph how much more brilliant she was than the quict darkâ€"eyed girl dressed in her black gown, whom she wished to eclipso. Poor Patty! Sir Ralph was soon tired of her chatter, and longing to have â€"a â€" quiect conversation . with Laura, He addressed ~Laura once or twice, and she answered sensibly and to the point, but Patty interrupted them. by all means. â€"What day shall we fix?

Her checks flushed, her eyes flashed, and then filled with tears, and she began walking up and down the room with irregular footstrps. Sir Ralph certainly would not have gone unless his "friend downstairs‘"‘ had been going, but he could not reâ€" sist the pleasure of secing Laurg Inâ€" gram again so soon, He therefore sent a telegram to accept Patty‘s invitatian, and at five o‘clock in the afternoon was ringing at the street door of the house in Maddox Street. He asked for Miss Ingram, but was told by Brice that she was *‘having tea with the two other ladics in the drawingâ€"room.
